Resum

Since it is not enough to see scientific knowledge’s objects as part and result of a sociodiscursive process, where they would work as “immutable mobiles” (Latour) or “boundary objects” (Star), we need to think theoretically how to describe them and how to underline their own agency and relationality. With this aim we start by considering them as “matters of care”, showing, therefore, the care chains in which they take part, being constituted and contributing to the constitution of other ingredients of technoscience. In order to clarify and develop this claim, they are identified as phenomena, in Bohr’s and Barad’s sense, which help us to see how objects and “subjects” of technoscience are mutually and differentially constituted as inseparable. It is, finally, argued that relationality is the key to the constitution, the activation and the modes of being of technoscience’ objects, as well as to the way they productively intervene in their own constitutions and the constitution of “subjects”. Co-constituted with them, they are an “active-and-open-becoming-with”.
